In Part 2, we’ll dive deeper. We’ll hear how each person's journey evolved over time—and what specific elements of their programming and what supports helped keep them motivated, and committed.

In Part 1, we sat down with four incredible learners who are currently attending—or have attended—Literacy and Basic Skills programs in the Toronto area. We explored the early stages of their literacy journey: how they discovered the programs, their first conversations with LBS staff, the goals they set, and the motivations that inspired them to begin and keep going.

Today we're diving into the shift from traditional paper-based systems to the interconnected world of the internet. We'll examine how this transition has transformed our access to information, reshaped our learning practices, and redefined literacy in the internet age. Join us as we shed light on how the internet era is reshaping our approach to knowledge, learning, and literacy.

In today's episode we are talking about an essential yet challenging and time-consuming activity in literacy programming: follow up.

Join us in part three of the structured reading series, as we delve into fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension strategies for learners of all ages. Discover practical techniques like repeated reading, echo reading, and the use of graphic organizers to help build strong literacy skills and foster a love of reading.

Today, we're going to be exploring a topic that every educator has encountered at some point: conflict.

Join us as we unpack the causes of these conflicts, explore strategies for resolutions and share insights on how to create a supportive learning environment.

Today we are diving into a fascinating topic that impacts all of us, especially those involved in education, and that is the nervous system. Many of us have heard of "fight or flight," but there's so much more to understand about how our nervous systems react to the world around us and how those reactions influence learning. Jenny will be talking about the nervous system and how it responds to fear and how that understanding can change our approach to instruction and learning. We will also be understanding how the nervous system can help create a more inclusive and effective learning environment.

Whether you're new or experienced, today's episode is all about preparing your learners for the transition to college-level upgrading.

We understand that entering a college environment can be intimidating. It’s not just about knowing the steps; it’s about equipping learners with the confidence and skills they need to succeed.

Join us as we share practical tips and strategies to guide your students through this crucial transition.
